Hey, that 65 year old neighbor with the $200k model trainset? Yeah, probably autistic.
“He was in fact, exactly that stupid…” - Ron Howard
‘He Cannot Be This Stupid’
He’s even more stupid than they are acknowledging.
Yes, I was going to post “hearing CAN be that stupid”.
Y-u know guys at some point you just have to roll with this shit because it’s too absurd. I mean I remember I used to be outraged far far in the past when I still treated these seriously
Now it’s just hilarious. Outrage to entertainment pipeline
What you can do is laugh and be entertained because such stupid people at the top will probably never happen again for decades. It’s your chance to soak up all the entertainment potential
That’s a very privileged viewpoint.
I’m sorry but if you can listen to RFK speak for longer than 10 seconds without becoming enraged then you really are just fucking dumb.
The inside of RFK Jrs head be like……
Don’t insult Brain like that! He is legitimately smart and does what he can given his circumstances (he is a literal lab rat in a lab that he has to escape from every night… and his only companion is barely functional).
Yeah, I don’t think The Brain is in there.
Short answer: if they got it bad, they’re dead or in a nursing home. That’s why they aren’t walking in a mall. They ran out of health.
Long answer: in recent times, there seems to be lower threshold of diagnosis.
But if he truly thinks he can pinpoint exposures that increase autism - things like the exposure to tetraethyl lead which probably increased criminality and decreased mental health - good luck for combing scientific studies. There may be some. But if he’s gonna rewind the age old “vaccines cause” record and replay it, nah, I won’t be listening.
They’re going to blame flouride for sure
Way too many rural (i.e. well water) cases for that to even make a good scapegoat.
It’s not that there’s a lower threshold. It’s that the definitions and our understanding of Autism changed. People who formerly would have been labeled with Asperger’s are now labeled (correctly) with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Plus we’ve learned how Autism can present differently in other communities that aren’t white male children. Acknowledging that girls can even be Autistic is a relatively recent development (the 90s).
The truth is that there are likely a ton of people out there with undiagnosed Autism, because they wouldn’t have met the criteria to be diagnosed as kids based on our understanding at the time. It’s why there are so many adults now getting late life diagnoses.
I love how this is the hill people finally die on, and not the other absolutely wild shit this guy has said before he even got this gig, like collecting roadkill or his extremely well documented conspiracy-esque, anti-vaccine history.
Unfortunately lots of old folks think this way, actually today in the morning this same topic was brought up at breakfast by my mom, she was not being disrespectful necessarily but still is incredible how she cannot see that herself might be autistic and just never got a diagnosis
oh yes he can be, just look at that face
Look, he’s killing people. He should be arrested and go to trial for criminal negligence and manslaughter. Like the rest of the bunch.
But they can’t even say it lol. “oh, some people touted!”
There was a thread on reddit that had someone speculate that he is an indirect serial killer. Meaning he tries to influence people into doing ‘healthy’ things that are anything but and keep bullying them into them until he results in their health declining to the point that they die. He had a relative that he did this to. The justice system isn’t built for that kind of stuff and proving it there would be damn near impossible unless he somehow confesses to it.
He looks like that old stress squeeze toy
That thing looks the killer in a horror movie franchise.
Don’t give Hollywood any new ideas.
Not even. Older people got the mercury-stabilized vaccines he’s ranting about, they should be more autistic according to him.
He’s just fucking stupid.
All the people who made the boomer neurodivergents disappear either have dementia or are long gone. Easy scapegoat.
Not to mention that there are heavy correlations between queer identities and Autism. A lot of neurodivergent Boomers likely died during the AIDS epidemic, unfortunately.
Plenty of older people have ASD. I know a couple personally. They have childhood stories of being beaten, yelled at, difficulty with teachers and peers. They claim to be fine today, but telling horror stories of your trauma as a kid really says otherwise. If ASD was bad enough to be “retarded”, they were kept from society and/or put in State Homes. RFK is ADHD, and the only thing that kept him out of jails due to the untreated effects when he was younger is hs family name and wealth.

That and having a penis. Rosemary wasn’t so lucky.
